To-Buy List for February

Since I am currently pretty much broke, I can only wait for January to end so that I start getting my pay checks again :(
In the meanwhile, I will keep making lists of stuff i'd buy...on Febraury...oh dear, please come soon..

These are what I want so far
  1. Garnier Moisture Rescue Gel-Cream: Dupe for Clinique's moisture surge...been eyeing it for quite a while now
  2. Hard Candy Nobody's Perfect: Darn coastal scents is not working that well, so need this back
  3. MUA conceal and brighten kit: New MUA product, have to try!!!
  4. Skin 79 hot pink BB cream: Haven't had any BB cream yet. Can you believe it? Heard this is the best for oily skin so going to start with that...
  5. Astalift Jelly Aquarysta: Finally this one...have been hearing a lot of good things about it in the grapevine..the price still makes me kind of skeptical though...maybe the trial size would be worth a try?
Also thinking about buying a high end foundation...short-listed a few..but again not sure since the drug store one are working pretty well right now...so maybe I should spurge a little less on cosmetics and buy something useful..

So what is on your shopping list?

Home facial sauna and more...

Finally my conair home facial sauna has arrived...i have been wanting one for so long...my primary concern was not to steam my face but hair..as I have low porosity hair it is really hard to get any product (deep conditioner, hot oil) to penetrate my hair unless I keep it on for a prolonged amount of time...which can be quite a problem specially in this winter season...
Also my first every revlon colorstay foundation...been hearing so much about this appparently-the-best-drugstore-foundation-ever...cant wait to try.
The shade is ofcourse a tad bit lighter than my mac nc25 skintone but i couldn't go for the next shades since they would be for warm undertones and i have a cool one
nyx orange corrector for under-eye...i have been using a yellowish tone corrector but heard orange would be the best... so got this one
Also some more elf stuff...i need to stop doing this but its just so cheap i cant help it
and some samples and feathers were free from the page owner i ordered this from...gave them to my kid cousin (except for the UD primer sample)..she loved it.
Gonna go try the facial sauna now :D :D :D

winter clothes shopping

went winter clothes shopping with my sister today...we are almost the same size so can share most of the clothes...


Might have been a bit overboard but hey these are extremely cheap...all between 300-600tk (4-8) USD...all brand new mostly made in Bangladesh garments stuff. I know a lot of shops and face book pages sells winter clothes starting from 2k+ and i have checked some of them out seemed nothing special to me ...

anyway i really wanted a red coat or something but didn't think could pull if it off :( :(

E.L.F. Purifying pressed powder

dropped by an exhibition arranged by some facebook page..

although there were a lot of items, I am pretty broke so just got an E.L.F. purifying pressed powder on spice as a memento. I bought the the same powder on honey a few weeks earlier and am really impressed by the coverage. It is really blendable, no visible residue whatsoever and gives a really natural finish. Also very good to set my foundation. Only problem is honey was too dark for my skin tone and even this spice one is too...maybe I'll get some lighter tones later as well.

what i got today: Neutrogena Fine Fairness Deep Whitening Sheet Face Masks and a perfume

This is my most fav sheet face mask ever!

I used to buy them from my most go to shops like Priyo and Almas..but after a while they stopped selling them. I was sooo hearthbroken...I breifly considered getting them from India online but it is not as easy as getting something from UK or USA. 

Anyway so today I went to this shop, Stardust, after, like ages. It was literally next to my high school so I used to go there every now and then with my friends, but after I graduated (which is soo long time ago, damn I'm old) I haven't really been there at all..so imagine my surprise when I found these in Stardust today...along with some other stuff I didn't think was locally avialble. 

I am so going to visit this store regularly :D

Oh mom gave me this perfume today...have no clue about the Brand but the scent is really awesome

What I got today: Orchard Point Haul

Look at my nails. Darn edges!
But I ran out of nail polish removers...so thought would make a quick stop to Orchard Point, a nearby mall, to pick one up.
This is what I ended up buying. Damn you, window shopping!
I needed an protein based conditioner, I mostly own moisturizing conditioners (I have low porosity hair so protein is not something my hair often needs), so yes Caring's Egg Protein Conditioner ( about tk550/ $8) was justified. I love Labellos, I got one a week ago but gave it to Ammu so needed one more. Face mask application brush, hair comb, eye brow pencil and ofcourse the nail polish removers were really cheap and doesn't count. However, I really DID NOT need yet another compact powder, but i just went ahead and got myself a L`oreal Infalliable(about tk600/$9) anyway!
The jwelleries were okay...i dont really buy them often. I have metal allergy,... i cant wear anything except gold for longer than 2-3 hour period without getting weird rash. But I really liked these. Specially this earrings.
Cost me about tk 380/ $5, nice, yes?
But wait...this isn't what the day was about it. So, Guess what? Its shoes. Two pair of amazing shoes. Just couldn't pass them on...

Aren't they pretty? Together they took about (tk1200/ $16)...now, wasn't that a great bargain? Justified? Hell Yeah :D

What I got today: Revlon Mascara

So today I went to Moyuri (a convenient store very close to my place) and saw this sweetie in a corner. 
Revlon Double Twist Blackest black (721) Mascara. For only tk 400! (around $6)
Moyuri, of all the places. So ofcourse i just had to get it. Even though I have too many mascaras as it is.Cross that, a girl can never have too many mascaras...
Maybe I will do a review later.
